Group vs Private Safari

Price (per person)

Group safaris are 15-30% cheaper because you share vehicle, guide, and park fee costs with 4-6 other travellers.

Vehicle

Private gives you full control of the vehicle — stop when you want, stay as long as you want at a sighting.

Itinerary Flexibility

Private safaris let you adjust the route mid-trip, skip parks, or extend game drives. Group safaris follow a set plan.

Departure Dates

Group safaris run on set dates. Private safaris depart whenever you're ready.

Social Experience

Group safaris are ideal for solo travellers and couples who want to meet like-minded adventurers.

Guide Attention

With a private guide, every question gets answered, every sighting gets full attention.

Accommodation

Group safaris typically use budget camping. Private safaris can range from camping to 5-star lodges.
